I think about this Calvin and Hobbes strip often.

[Ron Barbosa MD FACS @rbarbosa91]

When placing lines, I often see residents twisting and contorting themselves into awkward positions in order to be able to poke with their R hand.

Instead: Learn to use your LEFT hand when it's easier.

Learning to poke L handed🤚is easier than you think. You'll be 😀 later .

[Josh Farkas MD 💊 @PulmCrit]

kudos to @ACEPNation for calling out the Surviving Sepsis Campaign 2026 guidelines and not joining in this madness.

ACEP is great at making evidence-based policies that actually *help* provide better patient care.

When ACEP is politely burning your guideline, you’re in trouble.

Believe in yourself like visitors who believe they can pet a bison.

[Ken Milne MD @TheSGEM]

A good lesson to learn.

@medicboogie Depends on estimated weight and resources available. As you said not monitored after and that’s what I’d be most concerned about.

[Mark Lewis, MD, FASCO @marklewismd]

Becoming a licensed cosmetologist in my state requires *1600* hours of training at an accredited beauty school

I am supportive of NPs as partners in extending care but you are weakening, not strengthening the case for their clinical competence (1/20th of Gladwell's "mastery"?!)

[NAEMSP @NAEMSP]

That’s a wrap on NAEMSP’s 2024 Annual Meeting — and what a week it’s been! Some parting words from NAESMP President @cabanasmd below👇🏼 #NAEMSP2024

Until we see you again next year for #NAEMSP2025, get involved with chapters, committees, and much more on https://t.co/ME7PyzuQ4q.

#EMS clinicians & #EMSDocs cross all medical specialties & subspecialties, the full age spectrum & all clinical settings. All patients win when the house of medicine recognizes the critical role of #EMS & invites them to the table for discussions & collaboration. #NAEMSP2024

At #NAEMSP2024 with posters and catching up with friends! @TheDrJon

[Matt Sztajnkrycer @NoobieMatt]

We train a lot for trauma MCIs, and focus on surge capacity for ORs and surgical staff.

But CO can really ruin everyone’s day without ever impacting the OR, the SICU, etc.
